Butylated hydroxytoluene 4. Propyl gallate These products are obtainable from the food additive suppliers, since they are used in human food they are safe,they are used in very small amounts. Hello Marcus, Thanks for your advise.
I only use Chemtech Diesel Power additive in the car tank but never knew that I can add it to stored fuel. I wonder how many people are doing this.
Hi Chris, I collect the oil while it is very hot usually from the fryer and I guess the idea of a vacuum cleaner is easy to do. Very good thread everyone thanks for your post Fitian. Fitian I have no personall experience with this product, Diesel Power, Sorry. Originally Posted by Vegiecars. Join Date May Location central coast Posts Found this interesting old thread.

Just keep it below the surface by a inch or so. Ask your local restrauants or hamberger joint for the 5 gal. By using these cubes you can moniter the 'clearness' of the oil you are getting. As soon as you start seeing sludge or milky oil stop.
If you get your oil from a place that does not fry meat products you may not see this sludge. I think it is the meat fat that causes these clouds of light colored pollutants. These will clog up you filters and probably your fuel tank strainer.
It happened to me in my Diesel truck. Before you put your wvo into your car first decant it into these cubes and let it stand for a day or so. You will see the sludge settle to the bottom. You can then syphon off the clearer oil from the top.
Pour the sludge into a seperate cube and return it to the restaurent grease tank or run it back through your filter process. Be sure that the inlet of the pump you use to take the oil out of your filtering tank is well off the bottom of the tank. This will help prevent sucking up more sludge.
When I use the 55 gals. It is amazing the amt. Also be careful of water in the oil. This is what causes the alge growth. Good luck. All oil will eventually go rancid, IE, oxidize. Saturated fats oxidize slower than unsaturated fats, so 'crisco'-like oils will go rancid much slower. You want to keep the oil water-free, out of the light, and in a well sealed container with as little head-space as possible. Water, light, and air will all accellerate the oxidation process.
If your oil smells like linseed oil, its rancid, and shouldn't be used. There are so many variables that it can be very hard to give any reasonable 'shelf life' numbers, but I'd say it can vary from a few months to a few years, depending on the oil, its water content, and how it is being stored.

How long can you keep WVO?? Thread starter Berniem Start date Jun 17, Berniem Veteran Member. Joined Jan 24, Location Mansfield Pa. Does WVO have much of a shelf life? BioDiesel Veteran Member. I have some in sealed containers of WVO in the dark for years. Afriend stored thousands of gallons of wvo for years, a bd factory took it.
